They are sitting in the studio on top of the piano. I don't know whether to burn them or keep them but so far I've kept them
Well, you could probably read and learn from 'em. There's always more to learn. There are always skills to practice.
Hell, I'm having a blast pretending to be a new guitar player. I've decided that will be the case whenever I'm playing on the cheap equipment. When I play the good stuff, I can be myself. When I play the cheap stuff, I've gotta be new to the guitar.
The guitar is pretty good quality, actually. I'd say it's probably a little better than some of the cheaper Epiphones. It has settled down and I only had to make an adjustment on the low E. The height was off a little and the fix meant I had to change the intonation. It was all of three minutes work.
I have read most of them. I don't mind learning new things at all. I enjoy it as a matter of fact
If you read 'em, you could probably hand 'em on to the next person, save them, or burn them... Burning seems wasteful and paper doesn't make a great fire by itself - especially magazine paper. Though the chemicals in the paper and ink can make some pretty neat fires. There's copper in a lot of inks, so you'll get green flames. I forget which chemical it is, but you'll also get blue flames.
But, yeah, you could give 'em away to a budding guitar player. Maybe Chris will want 'em.
Also, I keep forgetting to mention that Horse With No Name is just a two chord song. You can learn it in five minutes.
